Pat Rice to leave Arsenal this summer - presumably like he was supposed to last summer, but this time he might actually leave. So, who will they replace him with? Will it be... a.) Someone else promoted from within to be a Yes Man that never questions Wenger's vision for the club that has taken them further and further from silverwear each year? b.) An outside who will inform Wenger that it might be a good idea to bring in some players with experience to help ease the myriad of youngsters into the team? c.) The currently available Damien Comolli?
Apparently he won things with their youth team in the last five years. Doesn't that mean that, technically, Wenger should be his #2?
just about the only ref worse than phil down,though. Phil Dowd's had some shocking performances for us!

Just heard Bilic is not renewing his contract with Croatia, and will leave the post after the Euro's.
im all for Bilic...i think he would bring a youthful vigour to our management set up! and some good football!
Laurent Blanc is also free after the Euros - whilst I think Bilic will do a good job and keep Modric and Kranjcar on side (not so sure about Corluka), if it were a straight choice between the two I'd go for Blanc as he has experience and success from managing in club football and, frankly, if he can turn the shambles that was the French team around he could do great things at Spurs.
That may be, but there's still a bad smell following him around... http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/blog/2011/may/05/laurent-blanc-race-row-french
Let's hope he doesn't throw a ****fit whenever the full backs go past the halfway line. The moment it came out that Santini would blow a whistle every time they did that in training was the moment it was clear he wouldn't last long. As for the race row, he did apologise for how the comments (which were more misguided than racist whilst former teammates and current players - ranging from Zidane and Desailly to Alou Diarra - have all come forward and said he was not a racist, which is noted in the Grauniad article. Certainly not comparable to a certain Liverpool manager we could all mention...
There you go Luke, have some of that. http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepag...ds-100m-to-rebuild-Man-Utd-Steven-Howard.html
